The expansion of the Ser Cidadao Headquarters in Santa Cruz, west zone of Rio de Janeiro, integrates social purpose and architectural intervention to support human and community development. The organization has operated since 2002 across education, culture, work, and health, creating opportunities for youth in vulnerable territories. A 2006 donation of a historic mansion, formerly the residence of doctor and senator Julio Cesario de Melo, shaped the project and provided a symbolic anchor. The mansion's legacy of care guided programmatic and design decisions. The expansion creates welcoming, educational, and transformative community spaces that reinforce service delivery, social inclusion, and local empowerment.
